This year's Leipzig Games Convention, set to go live this August in Germany, is going to be a tad bigger this year around, Gamasutra reports.
Last year's show had 368 exhibitors spread over about 90,000 square meters. This year's show will have 390 exhibitors spread over 115,000 square meters. That extra space will be taken up by a Family Entertainment exhibit with information on "Children/Family Games", "Learning and Knowledge", "Media Literacy", and new "Multimedia Education", "Art and Culture" and "Training and Careers" sections, Gama reports.
Better still, this year around the convention will include a 90 minute performance of live game music featuring conductor Andy Brick and the FILMharmonic Orchestra Prague, this time covering musical pieces from StarCraft, Final Fantasy IX, Ragnorak 2, Stranglehold, Metal Gear Solid 2: Snake Eater, Secret of Mana, The Abbey, Turrican 2, and other popular classics in a Commodore 64 and Commodore Amiga medley.
I think I might be heading to this, this year around. Anyone else planning on attending?
